Title: Optical waveguide device
Inventor: TANAKA KATSUO
IPC: H01L21/027
Filed: 2003-01-28
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical waveguide device which enhances the intensity of light propagated through an optical waveguide at a low cost without increasing spread of the light.  <P>SOLUTION: An optical waveguide device 11 has an optical waveguide 13 formed therethrough in the direction perpendicular to a metallic plate body 12 made of a negative dielectric medium of which the real part of the dielectric constant takes a negative value. When the direction of polarization of propagated light is taken as the width direction, an opening on the front end side of the optical waveguide 13 is formed into a minute opening 15 which is formed by continuously connecting a narrower part 16 having an inner width in the width direction made smaller than half the wavelength of propagated light and a wider part 17 having inner width larger than that of the narrower part. Consequently, when light is propagated in the optical waveguide 13, surface plasmons generated on both inner surface parts 18 facing each other in the width direction of the narrower part 16 couple to enhance the intensity of the electric field, and reduce the phase velocity, and as a result, the propagated light converges in the narrower part 16.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable the refresh operation in relation to an auxiliary piston, in regard to a hydraulic brake device for making the auxiliary piston directly abut on a master piston to drive for forward movement when the master piston is not operated for forward movement.  <P>SOLUTION: The hydraulic pressure output from a hydraulic pressure source PS is adjusted in response to the operation of a brake operating member 2, and led into an auxiliary hydraulic pressure chamber C2, and the master piston 11 is driven for forward movement to output the brake hydraulic pressure from a master hydraulic pressure chamber C1. The auxiliary piston 12 having at least a small diameter part (main body part 12c) and a large diameter part (land part 12b) is energized in the forward direction by a plate spring 13. A driving hydraulic pressure chamber C4 is formed between the small diameter part and the large diameter part, and the hydraulic pressure output from the hydraulic pressure source PS is supplied to drive the auxiliary piston for backward movement. After stopping supply of the hydraulic pressure output from the hydraulic pressure source, when the pressure inside the driving hydraulic pressure chamber becomes nearly atmospheric pressure, the auxiliary piston is driven for forward movement by the energizing force of the plate spring. Refresh operation is performed by operation during the described operation.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI

Filed: 2003-01-31
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a gas sensor having a structure equipped with a contact member and capable of suppressing the damage of a detection element accompanying vibration.  <P>SOLUTION: A contact holder 45 is brought into contact with the inner surface of an outer cylinder 118 at two outer cylinder contact and support parts 47 to be supported by the outer cylinder 118. By this constitution, a change in the relative position of the contact holder 45 with the detection element 4 can be suppressed in an oxygen sensor 2 even when vibration occurs. Accordingly, in the oxygen sensor 2, the occurrence of stress in the detection element 4 accompanying the occurrence of vibration can be avoided and the damage of the detection element 4 caused by the stress can be suppressed. Further, since the parts other than the outer cylinder contact and support parts 47 of the surface, which is opposed to the inner surface of the outer cylinder 118, of the contact holder 45 have gaps between the contact holder 45 and the inner surface of the outer cylinder 118, the probability of the direct propagation of an impact due to external force to the contact holder 45 can be reduced in the oxygen sensor 2.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
